My ideal client is someone seeking an experienced, collaborative, and pragmatic therapist who values both depth and practicality. You may be navigating anxiety, mood disorders, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes. Perhaps you’re facing the complexities of Parkinson’s disease or supporting a loved one. My approach is active and engaged, offering both insight and practical tools to help you feel supported, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.
I have specialized training in treating individuals with Parkinson’s disease and supporting their loved ones. My approach to CBT is flexible and individualized, while integrating mindfulness and self-compassion.
Though a native Californian, I spent two decades in Boston as a therapist, supervisor, and instructor at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School. My deep commitment to mindfulness led me to write Just This Moment, a book on mindfulness and motherhood, drawing from my years of specializing in maternal mental health and my experience raising three children.
